FAQs
Does the pot have drainage holes?
No, these planters do not come with pre-drilled drainage holes.
Can I leave this pot outside all year?
While the metal is durable, we recommend storing it indoors or in a sheltered area during extreme weather to preserve the distressed finish.
Is the pot heavy?
No, it is constructed to be lightweight at approximately 3000g, making it easy to move as needed.
Can I plant directly into the metal pot?
Yes, you can, but we recommend adding a layer of gravel at the bottom for drainage or using a plastic nursery liner.
What is the finish like?
The finish is a distressed vintage green, designed to look aged and rustic.
Can this be used for food crops?
It is intended for decorative purposes and floral arrangements; it is not recommended for food-grade usage.
Troubleshooting
Water pooling at the base
Drill drainage holes in the bottom or ensure you are using an inner nursery pot with its own drainage tray.
Surface appears dusty or dull
Gently wipe the exterior with a dry microfibre cloth to remove environmental buildup.
Plant growth is stunted
Check that the soil is not waterlogged due to the lack of drainage and consider adding a base layer of pebbles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare your flower pot for use, clean the interior with a soft, damp cloth. If you intend to use the pot for direct planting, carefully drill small holes in the bottom if drainage is required for your specific plant species. For outdoor maintenance, avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that may damage the distressed vintage finish. Periodically wipe down the exterior to remove dirt and dust. During harsh winter months, it is recommended to store the pots in a shed or garage to maintain the integrity of the finish and prevent unnecessary exposure to freezing moisture.
